The Warren, PA area is an interesting area. In 1982 had friends who suggested a trip to Russell PA was in order. They had older H-D riding friends in the area. He was cheif engineer at the state hospital north of Warren and south of Russell.Both residents of Russell are now buried in the local cemetery, with an etching of the two of them riding on their marker. My friends who I went with; he died ten years of complications from diabetes, she moved, a widow to eastern Ontario. We all rode the entire circumference of the Kinzua dam one warm summer's day and all of the surrounding roads. Strange to think, you've now traversed similar roads, many years later. Was intrigued with the water fountain in Warren, however moreso for the outline of diesel locomotives on the sign behind the fountain. There was at one time a foundry in Warren that cast bells for churches, again years before.

The Bloomsburg Rally was very hot; my friend Holly spent most of the time indoors, doing stats as volunteer. It was no cooler here in Southern Ontario!

And you are obviously enjoying your new set of wheels; one of these days I may too remount amotorcycle; too many other distractions in my world at present.

Hello, I’m Gail Hatch and I am, amongst other things, a motorcyclist. My home roads are in New Hampshire

I started this blog in 2007 when my then 12-year-old daughter and I toured the country on my ’87 BMW K75. That was 10 years and many miles ago. She’s graduated college and starting her own life. I remarried, bought a house and think a lot about what the road ahead. I haven’t added anything to my blog in a while. But I leave it here for people to stumble upon. I hope the stories encourage the reader to take an adventure they might not have considered.
